"The Burden" film and discussion

On August 10th, there will be an event at Highland Brewing in Asheville that organizers hope will help overcome the divisiveness that the topics of climate and clean energy usually produce.

The evening at the Highland Brewing Event Center will feature a screening of the 2016 documentary, The Burden, a film describing the U.S. military’s leadership role in reducing dependence on fossil fuels and the resulting impact on national security. The event will kick off at 6pm and will include a social time, introduction and viewing of the film, followed by a discussion and Q&A with a panel of experts. Free for veterans, $5 for public.
